Alas, not if you're from Europe it seems. I'd love to try one when I'm in the Bay area
- ghaff 2y agoIt's very limited geographically at this point. It's pretty clear it's going to be a long time before it's something near-universal and something you can just do with your own car--at a similar price point--today.
- vinni2 2y agoI am from Europe and managed to try Waymo in SF recently. Not sure why you couldn’t.
- Angostura 2y agoI think you misread. If they go to the Bay Area they would like to try it.
- fooker 2y agoMost new tech takes about 5-8 years to be available in Europe nowadays. For good reason sure, but might as well accept it.
- snowpid 2y agoVW has a similar service and want to roll out autonomous driving next year in Hamburg.
- fooker 2y agoWaymo started this in 2018, and expanded significantly 2020 onwards. Do you see what I mean by 5-8 years?
- snowpid 2y agoThat service of VW was started 2019 in Hamburg (but I know some years earlier it started in another town). Also VW invested long time in autonomous driving. I wouldnt be sure if Google has such an advantage.
